I couldn't fly a fighter jet if my life depended on it but I've forgotten more about politics and history than Bush and Obama combined ever knew.

I seriously doubt that your knowledge is greater than either Bush or Obama. I don't know your background, but you must admit that being "in the business" of politics has given both these individuals quite a lot of exposure to the nuances of the system that most people simply don't have the opportunity to experience. I think your statement is foolish.
